Yeah, The Only Question I Have Is Whether Scratch Cat Is Sentient And Has A Form Of Backstory. I Feel Like They Do But There Isnt Any Form Of Evidence About Scratch Cat, Or Their Story. All We Know that He Was Once Turned Into Lego In 2009 And He Traveled The World In 2016, But Thats All We Know. I Would Love To See A Form Of Backstory. I Would Be Thrilled If We Had Seen The Evolution Of Scratch Cat's Life Or Something. And Does Scratch Cat Have Family. Is The Scratch Cat From 2.0 The Same Cat, Or A Family Member, Or A Friend Or Who Are They. Also Why Are They In A White Void Called ‘The Stage’, And How Did They Get There To Begin With. AIso, Is Each Project Being Made Secretly Another Day, Or Even More Insane, A Cry For Help As Scratch Cat Realizes His Legacy Is Slowly Ending, Painfully As More And More People Stop Using Scratch Cat In Their Project, Knowing That Sooner Or Later, They Would Be Replace Or Dare I Say, Forgotten? ok, im going insane over a virtual cat. BUT, WE NEED A BACKSTORY OR SOMETHING???

I actually do think there is a bit of canon stuff, in like one/two years ago for the April fools' event we could “time travel” through different kinds of Scratch throughout the years, and the ol' fella even existed supposedly back in ancient times :0

This Implies That Scratch Cat Has Existed For Thousands Of Years. Cats Average Life Span Is 12-18 Years, So, This May Imply That Scratch Cat Immortal. I Mean, That Idea Makes Sense I Think. I Mean, If Thats True, Then Scratch Cat Has Lived Through Two World Wars, An American Civil War, Russia / Ukraine, Gaza / Israel, etc.

Is there any lore behind scratch cat?

If we're talking about lore, how many Scratch cats are there, I mean of course, look at project ID's. But, how many of them have a scratch cat sprite/costume in it. And Scratch has multiple modded versions of it. With more Scratch Cats, there's several scratch cat images printed out there, so are they all one big family, or clones? If scratch cat was a costume out of multiple costumes in a sprite, would Scratch Cat just be shapeshifting? And, this is crazy, but, is Scratch cat a robot? I mean, robots have coding, scratch cat has coding. Robots can stand in position for several minutes, scratch cat can be in a position for several minutes, etc. Are we engineers, programmers, programming a robot cat? And, why is scratch cat called: Scratch cat? Is scratch cat a orange tabby cat, or a orange robot cat?


This is probably not true, but just thought of it.



WORSHIP RUBBER DUCK!!!!
I shall






I live in the suggestions sub-forum.

I might move into a 5-star forum!! I think it's called A“bout Scratch”?
YIPPEEEEEE

There is not much info on Scratch Cat but he has been on vacation to several places and can swim, he has also been to space.

He is also confirmed to be non-binary by Scratch Team member Christian (known as ceebee).

They Were Always Mortal In Multiple Different Ways (There Are Multiple Timelines Of Scratch Cat Being ‘Alive’. With The First One Being That They Are A Celebrity, Being Made Out Of Nothing But Legos, Once Being In Every Place On This Website One Way Or Another, Being When You Start A New Project, The Scratch Home Page Back At The End Of The 2.0 Timeline Around 2018, etc.) However, Not Much Movement Of Them Has Been Done By Official Scratch Team Members For A While, But That May Change In Scratch Week 2024

Thats Not Official In Any Way Though, It Wasn't Down Right Proven That Those Cats Are Scratch Cats ‘Brothers’. This Thread Is Going Off Official Terms Of ‘Scratch Cat Lore’

This is probably not true, but just thought of it.
To Be Fair, Thats Not A Bad Theory. But Despite Many Projects Not Having Signs Of Scratch Cat, Thousands Of Projects Do. Think About It, There Are 1 Billion Projects Now, Lets Say… 10% Of Them Have Scratch Cat. That Would Be 100 Million Scratch Cats. I Highly Doubt They Would Be A Family. BUT, The Robot Idea May Be Correct. If You Pay Attention To The Text Generated When Loading A Project (Whether A Blank One Or A Random One By Someone Else), One Of The Texts That Comes Up Is ‘Herding cats’. Key Word: catS. This Implies There Are Multiple ‘Cats’. What May Be Happening Is That, There Are Billions Of Cats And When A Project Is Made, The First One In Line Is Sent To The ‘Stage’. So, ‘Herding Cats’ Could Simply Imply That They Are Selecting The Cat To Be On Stage. And ‘Herding Cats; Means ’a futile attempt to control or organize a class of entities'. So They Could Be Organizing The Robot Cats To Select What Cat Is Getting On The Stage.

Well, the entire human population of the world is 8 billion, so 100 million Scratch Cats could easily just be a species.
also, all of us humans share 99.8%-99.9% of our DNA, so it's not a stretch for there to be a bunch of very similar Scratch Cats, even if they were minimally different from each other, so the robot theory may be false. Then again, they do exactly as they're told, at least inside projects

Also, they are most likely immortal (just speculation, though.)
